Raspberry Bourbon Smash is your new favorite cocktail! Raspberry jam, orange juice, bourbon, and orange liqueur smashed together and served over ice.
If you love bourbon drinks, try Strawberry Basil Bourbon Smash and Grapefruit-Ginger Bourbon Sour!
Let me tell you about my new favorite cocktail.
I bought a bottle of bourbon months ago for a recipe and have been trying to get rid of it ever since. Which explains why I’ve only had bourbon cocktails on the blog this year (margaritas coming soon, I promise!) but omg, it’s the neverending bottle of bourbon.
Okay, so, this Raspberry Bourbon Smash recipe may look weird because it starts with jam.
Yeah, jam.
But I promise it works!
I was worried it would be super sweet but it really wasn’t. And the jam didn’t give it a weird texture or anything. I really enjoyed it and would totally make it again. I think this would be the perfect poolside drink!
Ingredients
- Raspberry jam
- Orange juice – you can use fresh squeezed orange juice or the bottled stuff. I like to use the Trop50 to keep this a lower calorie cocktail
- Bourbon – use your favorite bourbon. I like Bulleit for all my bourbon mixed drinks. You can also use whiskey and make it a whiskey smash instead!
- Orange liqueur
- Sparkling water
- Orange slices
How To Make Raspberry Bourbon Smash
- Shake ingredients. In a shaker, combine raspberry jam, orange juice, bourbon, and triple sec with ice. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds.
- Serve. Strain into 2 glasses and top with sparkling water and an orange slice.

Can i substitute the orange juice for another type of juice? I am allergic to all citrus fruits.
amanda says
Honestly, I’ve never tried substituting anything else so I can’t be sure but I’m gonna guess that any other kind of juice you like would be delicious. You really can’t go wrong with raspberry and bourbon.
